I just got my ak. What are some okay brands of ammo. Being an ak I am certainly good with steel case for now. Just want a reliable brand

As per the 7.62x39, 300 yards is a stretch. I just laid in several thousand rounds of it from Ammoman, and the cost was about 20c per shot. It is steel cased, so it is not reloadable, it is simply fire and forget. The point being, when you can get the imported ammo, loaded for less than the bullets would cost you to reload, then that is the major factor of consideration. You mention staying on an 8" gong at 300 yards, then that sort of accuracy is plenty adequate for hunting or battle use. This little cartridge is definitely not a 300 yard hunting cartridge. However in the battle situation, wounds are more effective than kills, as it takes more out of action.
